[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 998961, member: 52972"] Oldtimer, OK, but that is just your interpretation of the 2nd Amendment....Now go try and buy a few hand grenades, military grade explosives, or fully automatic weapons, and you will see that there is an "Infringement" and for a good reason. Civilians and even a resistance militia that was mentioned by Thomas Jefferson, were never given full access to unlimited arms...only that they have the right to bear arms...and your interpretation of "Infringement" differs from what most people consider the right to bear arms. The only reason this has gone on for so long is the strong lobby group backed by the NRA. For those who think there should be more mental screening, I agree, but just how is that going to be accomplished. What test exist that shows that a person given access to a gun will commit a crime? It's all speculation? I agree that some people who already have documented mental disorders should not be allowed to purchase or even access to any weapons, but unfortunately, that will still not resolve the problem. So rather than scream that your rights are being violated, why not take a moment and think of a legal way to prevent weapons from getting into the hands of the mentally unstable? ...Rich [/QUOTE]
